Commentary for Isaiah 22:20
וְהָיָ֖ה בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֑וּא וְקָרָ֣אתִי לְעַבְדִּ֔י לְאֶלְיָקִ֖ים בֶּן־חִלְקִיָּֽהוּ׃
And it shall come to pass in that day, That I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah;
Rashi on Isaiah
to Eliakim He was appointed over the house when Sennacherib took him, (i.e., Shebna,) as we find, when they went out to Rabshakeh, and he revealed to him Shebna and his company, and they dragged him with their horses’ tails, as is related in San. (26b). When Sennacherib went to Tirhakah, king of Cush, he swept away Shebna and his company and went away. We learned this in Seder Olam (ch. 23).

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
To my servant. He was the servant of the Lord; not so Shebna.
